> Key: MWAR-22
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-22
> Project: Maven 2.x War Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Cameron Braid
> Assignee: Stephane Nicoll
> Attachments: maven-war-plugin-extraWarResources.patch

>
> Currnelty, there is no way to execute a plugin inbetween the 'build exploded
> webapp' part of this plugin, and the 'zip up resources' bit.
> I have the need to override classpath resources, and sometimes other webapp
> resources, based on a deployment target, such as test / staging or production.
> With this patch, I will be able to have files layed out like this :
> /profile/test/config.properties
> /src/main/resources/config.properties
> then configure the war plugin :
> <configuration>
> <extraWebappClasses>profile/test</extraWebappClasses>
> </configuration>
> thus producing a war that contains profile/test/config.properties instead of
> the default /src/main/resources/config.properties
> I have investigated alternative ways to achive this goal, and none of them
> seemed easy.
> Some ideas :
> * split the package phase into 2 phases - preparePackage and package
> * provide a generic technique to allow plugins to expose extension points
> where other plugins can hook into
> * create a plugin that runs after the war plugin, that creates a new war -
> slow since the ziping will need to be done twice
> i'm keen to hear anyone's thoughts on the mailing list or in irc - my nick is
> Fracture
